Application menu re-creation

[lotech]

I messed up with some files and the application menu is now empty, is there any way to bring it back, can I download the default menu somewhere, or can it be re-created automatically ?

Sorry, it's way too late to help you. But in case it helps others. Here is what worked for me:

 sudo mv ~/.kde/share/applnk ~/.kde/share/applnk.backup
